Recycling garden containers
									
	(COLUMBIA, MO) - The city of Columbia Public Works Department
announces a partnership with two local businesses to recycle plastic
garden containers. Like many types of plastic, the garden containers
cannot be recycled in the normal city recycling program because of the
various types of plastic used. 
	Ryan Enterprises of Millersburg has found another use for these
plastics by making fence posts and other products. The city of Columbia
is partnering with Superior Garden Center to gather containers for Ryan
Enterprises so they can be turned into useful recycled products. 
	Individuals may drop off their plastic garden containers at
Superior Garden Center on June 15 -16 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. and on
June 17 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Superior Garden Center is located at
3100 Old Highway 63 South.
	If you would like more information on recycling programs, please
contact the Public Works Volunteer Program at 874-6271 or check out the
city’s Web site at www.GoColumbiaMo.com.
